Exterior lighting is an important part of Ringling College's commitment to campus safety and security. The campus is well-lighted, but in an ongoing effort to maintain a safe environment, further lighting improvements are periodically made to parking areas, pedestrian walkways and building exteriors. Surveys of exterior lighting on campus are conducted by Public Safety officers on a regular basis, and the Facilities Operations department gives high priority to the repair and replacement of exterior lighting as needed. Members of the campus community are encouraged to report any exterior lighting deficiencies to the Office of Public Safety.
